different nationalities called upon him
during the afternoon at his hotel, but
he felt 80 fatiRued that he rel eyed
himself from all further pubic notice
by locking himself in his room and
attending 10 the dispatches from his
friends in Toronto, which were many
end frequent. He wrote couple OF
long letters for his newspaper, United
Ireland, de Cribing his tour 30 far,
drawing a pen picture of the sights
and fcenes both OF this city and Que.
bee, and praising the warmth and hos
piaity Of the people, which, he says,
haI astonished him more than any
thing else.
A touching scene was witnessed on
the Montreal, the boat by which Mr..
0'Brisn travelled from Qletec. 1t was
noticed that low sized man sat oppo-
site the Irish agitator, and never took
his eyes off him. Then he began
fumbliDg in bis pocket and acting
strangely. This excited the susp clons
OF the party, who watched the stranger
closely, and were even going 10 far as
to suggest that he be removed, but an
explanation and an agreeable surprise
was the outcome of the affair. In II q
first place the man was deaf, and in
the second place he put his hind into
his trousers pocket and pulled out q
G5 Bank Of England note and
Put it into the hand of the
editor of United Ireland. Although
his destination was Three Rivers,
he insisted on travelling the whole wav
to Montreal. He got Mr.. 0'Brien's
autograph and wrote out in large let.

went to high mass at st. Patrick
church today in company with D.

society, and j. B. Lane and II. ].
Oloran, officers of the local league.
There was an immense congregation
and when he left the church he was
surrounded by crowds who fairly took
his breath away in their efforts to en-
brace him as well as 10 shake hands
with him. Then he took a drive,
lunched with Mr.. Barry and in the
afternoon attended National League
meeting in Patricks Hall, which
was crowded by an audience
which cheered the Irish sgitator and
the ev cted tenant, Mr.. Kilbride, wher
they entered. God Save the Lane
